Just to give an update, they have written it off as the costs of repair have been quoted at...........£5500!!!!

They have marked the salvage value as £420.

 

so are you going to get it back then mate

 

not sure if I can be bothered with the agro of getting it back and doing something with it. I'm pretty sure it would break for a decent amount of money, but it's the time and space doing it and then all of the bits you have left over at the end, you know how it is!
